What type of feedback mechanism is described below?

As the population size of a country increases rapidly, this creates greater demand on the food supply making it inadequate (not enough) for the population size, as a result the population size decreases.

• Positive

• Negative

What type of feedback mechanism is described below?

As the earth warms that creates more water vapor (a Greenhouse gas) from the evaporating ocean. This leads to create warms due to an increased greenhouse gas effect.

• Positive

• Negative

Consider the water cycle and ignore ice volume. As rain is add to the earth, the volume of water in streams and lakes on land temporarily increases until the rain event is over and the water is flushed to the ocean where it will once again evaporate to make more rain clouds repeating the cycle.

This is an example of what?

• negative feedback mechanism

• positive feedback mechanism

• ecosystem

• dynamic equilibrium
